Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a Muslim woman to travel from the lands of disbelief to the lands of Islam for the sake of migration?

Yes, they say that for migration, a woman may travel even without a mahram. This is an exception where she travels without a mahram if she is a migrant.
